 According to the analysis undertaken here, Who Is Man? illustrates that the seminal point in Heschel’s thought is its critique of postmodernism. The popularity of Heschel’s writings has clearly presented a double-edged sword. Measured in terms of dissemination, Heschel’s works are unprecedented—their accessibility for a Jewish author of the modern era is unsurpassed. Measured in terms of the discussion of ideas embedded in Heschel’s thought, we have hardly advanced beyond a cult of personality. Again, this is sadly due as much to his adherents and to his detractors.
